Located 1 km from Le camp de base, Le camp d'approche is a hangar converted into an [c]educational[/c] and [c]introductory[/c] center. It offers a space [u-2]specially designed[/u-2] for classes, schools, families, and groups on weekends. Le camp de base members are, of course, welcome to use it as well!
✦ Our various walls
Three spaces [u-2]to discover[/u-2]
Toddler area
You're never too young to start climbing, which is why we've designed a wall specifically for little monkeys to take their first steps in complete safety.
Bouldering area
A great bouldering wall to gently learn the ropes at your own pace. No ropes or belay equipment needed here—just you, the wall, and the crash pad, of course!
Rope wall
16 ropes reaching 6 meters high, perfect for gaining some altitude and learning the basics of climbing routes and belaying. There are also 4 auto-belay devices available for solo climbing.

Safety & Competence
A climbing gym is not a playground. It is a place for adventure with safety rules that must be followed. By climbing with us, you agree to read and abide by these rules.
- Do not climb in the rope area unless you are roped up and fully competent in safety procedures
- I keep the mats clear, as they are fall zones
- I don't run in the gym, I climb ;)
- I do not leave my children unattended
- I wear appropriate climbing shoes
A gym for climbers of all ages who want to [u-2]reach new heights![/u-2]
